Wow, 5 years! 5 years ago yesterday (7/19/2016) YHC made one of the best decision of his life and posted for the 1st time. A lot has happen over the last 5 years. Some great things and some terrible. Many situations that YHC was very glad to have the love and support of the PAX. Many CSAUPs, GORUCK events, Spartans, P200s, D2D, USMC mud runs and a ton of beatdowns!
YHC is a better man today than 5 years ago. F3 has helped YHC through my M battling cancer, ups and downs of life and 6 surgeries. YHC’s health continues to decline due to RA with some days being better than others. Often times, YHC just shows up and runs his mouth instead of a lap. The great thing is, the men still push YHC to post. They encourage me to show up and join in on the fellowship! You see, F3 IS MORE THAN JUST A WORKOUT. It is a group of men to help you through life. A group of men that push you to get better. Not just physically, but mentally as well. YHC is thankful to the men of Snake Pit and all the PAX of F3 Lexington for continuing to strive to be better men, and to push other to better themselves. The men of Snake Pit are second to none!

Mosey towards the warm up area on the practice field and grab a block on the way. Someone grabbed YHC’s block as the white board and umbrella were being set up. Luckily the umbrella worked and the rain did not erase the #weinke

Next up-
Murder bunnies to opposite goal line. OH carry to pull up bars.
Started running short on time and needed to name an FNG so we had to modify the last little bit of the weinke. Murder bunnies were completed then OH carry back to the block pile. Unfortunately, no MARY or Donatello. I am pretty sure the PAX were happy they did not have to lay on their backs as we were already wet enough. Also, no time for pull-ups. Which is really unfortunates as Honey Bun (R) was going to have to attempt them 1 handed due to a nagging wrist injury.
- Pull ups X 50
- OH press X 50
OH carry back to original goal line.
MARY OYO
- BBSU X 25 with block

Donatello- really disappointed that YHC was unable to squeeze this in. All FNGs should be introduced to the Big Boys stairs immediately.

“The Man in the Arena”
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
April 23, 1910, Theodore Roosevelt
